2025-07-28 20:51:50For days, Kaelen hunted relentlessly through the vast Wild Forest.
Blood, torn flesh, and beast cores from the savage creatures he felled fueled his cultivation. Each strike and each kill sharpened him, body, mind, and soul.
Three days later, deep in a misty, fetid marsh, a silver-scaled, eight-armed monstrosity screeched as Kaelen’s sword pierced its heart.
The creature crashed to the ground, lifeless.
Calmly, Kaelen retrieved its core, rinsed it, and swallowed it whole.
Boom!
Demonic essence surged through him, spreading like wildfire through his limbs and bones before converging in his spiritual core and feeding his true energy.
Crack!
A formidable aura erupted.
Third Heaven of the True Martial Realm.
In just a few days, Kaelen had leaped two realms. His cultivation had skyrocketed at a pace that would stun anyone who witnessed it.
Beast cores were toxic to humans. Their essence clashed violently with true energy. One wrong move, and death was guaranteed.
Yet Kaelen defied the rules.
He refined, absorbed, and converted that power to ascend.
A miracle born from the Divine Art of Creation, true creation itself.
It transformed his vital energy into something boundless, capable of integrating all things, like the ocean swallowing every river. His body had become a furnace, absorbing power from any attribute and any race.
“But... I still need more time before stepping into the First Heaven of the Divine Art of Creation,” he murmured, his eyes gleaming.
Suddenly, a cruel, mocking voice broke the silence from the trees.
“There you are, brat!”
Killing intent thickened the air.
“You stole from the Frostfang Mercenaries Group and fled into the Purple Cloud Mountains? You’re finished!”
Kaelen frowned.
“What are you talking about? I’ve never stolen a thing.”
Armored men emerged from the jungle, their faces twisted with bloodlust.
Leading them were the two mercenaries he had humiliated outside Ravenhollow Tower.
Cold clarity settled in Kaelen’s eyes.
They’re framing me. Falsely accusing me to mark me for death.
A bitter laugh escaped him.
“I never wanted bloodshed... but since you’ve forced my hand, I’ll oblige.”
Thud. Thud. Thud.
His footsteps echoed through the mist, each one a promise of lethal intent.
Boom!
A surge of true energy erupted, waves radiating from his body.
“What?! Third Heaven of the True Martial Realm?!”
The mercenaries froze.
Just three days ago, he had barely reached the First Heaven. How...?
“Don’t panic! There are dozens of us!” one of them shouted. “Kill him! Anyone who provokes the Frostfang Mercenaries must die!”
A dozen blades gleamed as they charged.
Kaelen didn’t flinch.
A slight, deadly smile curved his lips.
“Fools. If you want to die, then come.”
Steel flashed.
The rusted blade from the elder sliced through the air like lightning.
Puchi!
A Third Heaven warrior barely had time to react before his throat was pierced.
Instant death.
Boom!
Steel rained down from all directions.
“Divine Art of Creation, activate!” Kaelen roared.
“Battle Body of Creation!”
His left hand transformed, becoming bronze and metallic, gleaming with divine light.
Blades shattered upon contact.
The mercenaries stared in shock.
“So it begins... the First Heaven of the Divine Art of Creation.”
His father’s words echoed in his mind.
Each Heaven awakened an innate power, transforming the practitioner into an indestructible vessel.
The First Heaven’s mark was the Bronze Battle Body.
Every inch of flesh, bone, and meridian was strengthened, becoming harder than iron and tougher than steel.
Kaelen laughed, low and cold.
“You came to kill me... but you’ve only brought yourselves to your deaths.”
The Bronze Battle Body was overwhelming.
Martial artists at the True Martial Realm could no longer harm him.
Panic rippled through the mercenaries.
The Frostfang Mercenaries tried to flee.
Kaelen’s voice cut through the mist.
“You think you can run now, after I came to your doorstep?”
His eyes gleamed with lethal intent.
“Bright Moon Sword Technique!
Grandmastery Essence! Endless Sword Rain!”Clang! Clang! Clang!
Sword shadows rained down, sealing every escape.
Warriors screamed as blades pierced their bodies.
Within moments, only the two mercenaries who had falsely accused Kaelen remained.
With a thunderous step, he appeared before them.
“Please... have mercy! Spare me!” one begged.
The blade flashed.
His throat split open, and blood sprayed through the air.
“I gave you a chance,” Kaelen said coldly. “You chose not to cherish it.”
The last mercenary quaked.
“This... this was just the vanguard! Our captain and deputies are deeper in the mountains! They’re peak Ninth Heaven experts! And our captain... Spirit Martial Realm! You’re dead, brat!”
Before he could finish, Kaelen’s sword silenced him.
“A Spirit Martial Realm cultivator...”
Kaelen’s gaze sharpened.
Though dominant over True Martial Realm warriors, a Spirit Martial powerhouse was on another level entirely.
Suddenly...
Buzz!
A transformation stirred.
Wonder filled his eyes.
The Bronze Battle Body had fully awakened.
From head to toe, his body shimmered with a bronze radiance. Even his hair and pupils gleamed with a metallic sheen under the sun.
“That battle pushed me to a full breakthrough... my first innate talent is about to awaken.”
Behind him, within the void, a massive ancient furnace materialized.
“What... my first talent is a furnace?” Kaelen muttered.
He recalled his father, Emperor Therion Viremont, whose first talent was the divine Heavenly Tribulation Sword.
Heaven mocking me...?
Boom!
A suction force erupted from the furnace.
True energy from the dead mercenaries streamed into it, devoured, refined, and transformed into pure cultivation energy.
Kaelen’s cultivation surged, advancing three minor realms at once.
Sixth Heaven of the True Martial Realm.
The Creation Furnace could devour anything: spiritual stones, divine herbs, the essence of the sun and moon, and even life force.
A torrent of ancient knowledge surged into his mind.
“This... this furnace is terrifying. Its devouring ability is unmatched.”
Voices echoed from the forest.
“Captain! There’s fighting ahead. We might have caught the thief!”
Kaelen vanished like a wraith, avoiding the Spirit Martial Realm captain.
The Purple Cloud Mountains are vast... let’s see if you can find me again.
At the vanguard battlefield, Kael Draven, captain of the Frostfang Mercenaries, roared:
“Mobilize all forces! Hunt that brat! A 500,000-coin bounty, dead or alive!”
And so, the hunt began.

Elowen Frostvale led Kaelen Viremont toward the inner area of the House of Celestial Prodigies.At that moment, Kaelen glanced at the stunning woman beside him and asked, "By the way, what were the rules of the House of Celestial Prodigies that those officials mentioned earlier?"Elowen smiled and replied, "There aren't any particularly important rules. The House of Celestial Prodigies is the most special institution within the administrative headquarters of Frostveil Province. Everyone who joins possesses unique abilities and special means. Therefore, the higher-ups of our provincial government don't impose any compulsory requirements on these unusual individuals. You only need to lend a hand and resolve any special problems that the provincial government cannot handle whenever they arise. Other than that, there are no restrictions whatsoever. You'll probably enjoy even more freedom here than you would in a sect."Hearing this, Kaelen nodded and said, "In that case, joining the House

It was also a very unusual department.As its name suggested, the House of Celestial Prodigies was an institution established by the provincial government to recruit extraordinary individuals and people with exceptional abilities.Anyone possessing a special ability, exceptional strength, or unique insights in a particular field could join the House of Celestial Prodigies and enjoy the various Arcane Training resources and benefits provided by the provincial government.Following Elowen, Kaelen arrived outside the House of Celestial Prodigies.He immediately saw numerous ancient pavilions stretching across the entire area.Birds sang, flowers bloomed, and winding streams flowed through the grounds. Unlike most of the other buildings

After asking around, Kaelen Viremont soon arrived in the heart of Frostveil Province's capital.A massive building stood there, guarded by numerous soldiers.As Kaelen approached, two tall, armored guards immediately stepped forward to stop him.Kaelen said, "I'm here to visit an old friend."One of the guards replied, "Unless someone from the Governor's Residence has personally invited you, I'm afraid you'll have to leave, young man."Kaelen shook his head. "It's true that I don't have an invitation. However, I've come to find Elowen Frostvale of the Governor's Residence. She's a good friend of mine.""Elowen Frostvale?"One of the guards looked surprised."You actually know our Seventh Young Lady's name? It seems you really are her friend. Our Seventh Young Lady is the most mysterious of the Governor's daughters. Very few people even know her name."The guard continued, "However, we still need to verify your identity. Tell us your name, and I'll report your arrival to the Seventh Yo
Chapter 964: The Capital of Frostveil Province
The Frostveil Province Governor's Residence was located in the central region of Frostveil Province.After seven days and seven nights of traveling across most of Frostveil Province, a magnificent capital city finally came into Kaelen Viremont's view. It stretched across the land for several thousand miles.Even from a thousand meters away, Kaelen could clearly sense the city's grandeur and overwhelming majesty with a single glance.As the most prosperous and important region of Frostveil Province, the Frostveil Province Governor's Residence was also a directly administered institution of the Celestial Ascendancy Dynasty. Naturally, the entire city had been constructed on an incomparably magnificent scale.No matter what kind of demons, monsters, or evil beings they were, none dared to cause trouble within the capital of Frostveil Province.This was because the city carried the fortune of the Celestial Ascendancy Dynasty and was guarded by supreme experts from the imperial court.

Chapter 963: The Ruins
Next, Seraphina joined Kaelen Viremont on his journey.The sinister-looking man dressed in black, who was the transformed form of the Earthcoil Wyrm, remained concealed within the void and rarely revealed himself.Kaelen was quite curious about the Earthcoil Wyrm's ability to conceal himself within the void. It seemed to be an innate inheritance of the Primordial Earthcoil Wyrm bloodline.However, since Kaelen possessed a Spatial Seed within his body, he had little interest in learning the Earthcoil Wyrm's innate racial ability."We've been in the Ancient Elarion Ruins for quite some time now. I wonder if Grand Elder Zyvarion Veyl has been waiting for me all this time."Kaelen muttered to himself.If he did not leave soon, Grand Elder Zyvarion Veyl would probably continue waiting for him at the entrance.At that moment, Kaelen took a map out of his Spatial Ring and headed in a particular direction.This was the very map Grand Elder Zyvarion Veyl had given him before he entered the Anc
